Also included was a questionnaire on alcohol consumption and smoking habits, as well as weight and height measurements and an assessment of the men's physical activities. The purpose was to describe dietary habits and to characterize men with inadequate habits according to different psychosocial characteristics. Average intake of energy and nutrients was, in general, well above the recommended. However, the variation was wide. According to the definition used, about 20% were considered to have \"inadequate\" dietary habits. No proportional differences in social class and marital status were found among these men. However, those with sufficient social network and social support fared better. Overweight, obesity, low physical activity and high alcohol consumption were more common among the men with inadequate diets. Low social anchorage, low physical activity and high body mass index were independent risk indicators of inadequate dietary habits in this population.","PeriodicalId":77914,"journal":{"name":"Comprehensive gerontology.

{"title":"Mental impairment of elderly hospitalized hip fracture patients.","authors":"A L Furstenberg, M D Mezey","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"Mental impairment recorded at admission, following surgery and at discharge was assessed by studying the hospital records of 98 community residing persons, 60 years and older (mean age 76.2), hospitalized for a hip fracture and discharged alive. Of the total sample, the proportion mentally impaired following surgery was 33%. In a subsample of 74 patients for whom data were known at admission and after surgery, 15% were identified as persistently mentally impaired at admission and post-surgery, 26% were impaired only post-surgically and 59% had no recorded impairment either at admission or after surgery. Length of hospitalization (LOS) differed significantly among these three impairment groups, with persistently impaired having significantly longer stays (mean number of days = 53) than the never impaired (mean number of days = 24) and the newly impaired (mean number of days = 38) falling in between (p less than 0.005). Mental impairment continued to exhibit a significant and independent relationship with length of stay even when age and total diagnoses were held constant. The substantial prevalence of mental impairment during hospitalization, coupled with the increased length of stay in patients exhibiting impairment persisting from time of admission or newly evident after surgery, underscore the importance of mental status for recovery. Findings suggest that assessing the progression of mental impairment over the course of a hospital stay yields more accurate information about the relationship of mental status to recovery indicators and that accurate assessment of impairment at admission identifies a patient group at high risk for increased lengths of stay.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)","PeriodicalId":77914,"journal":{"name":"Comprehensive gerontology.

{"title":"Cognitive impairment and the quality of care in long-term care institutions.","authors":"R Fleishman, A Rosin, A Tomer, R Schwartz","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"This study sought to determine whether cognitively impaired elderly in long-term care institutions receive a lower quality of care than do the non-impaired. The quality of care for each of 136 elderly in nine units for independent, frail and nursing residents was examined through the tracer method. On the basis of the MSQ test and an assessment by the ward nurse, a composite scale for measuring cognitive impairment was developed. Sixty-one percent of the elderly were found to suffer moderate to severe cognitive impairment. The cognitively impaired patients were found to receive poorer nursing care and staff were unaware of the existence of a greater proportion of their medical problems, compared with the non-impaired. The findings suggest that the lower quality care provided to the cognitively impaired is related to their greater behavioral and social problems such as aggressiveness and apathy. Staff members are apparently less inclined to have contact with patients displaying such problems. Changes of referral policies and training programs for institutional staff on the care of the cognitively impaired elderly are necessary in order to improve care for this group.","PeriodicalId":77914,"journal":{"name":"Comprehensive gerontology.
